  Speaker 4: But I just leaned into little Wayne because that's what
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: I grew up on. Bro, Like, that's probably one of
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: my goats. I've been listening to Carter two, Carter thre'es

  Speaker 4: your cheese from shows performances. Then the rest of that ship,
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: like overseas is a lot of money too. I mean,
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: but I don't know the rest of that ship. Like
• 6:35

• 6:38
  Speaker 2: Say, like whatever your label.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Now do you think do you think some some NBA
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: stars are jealous? Because I feel like it's it's a
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: couple of NBA stars, you know, they.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Want to be artists, you know.
• 6:51

  Speaker 1: started really transition over to you know, to doing music
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: facts successfully.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Might I don't know, I might have ruff like feathers
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: or something, but you know, like I don't never be
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: tripping on that ship either.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: You mad, you can hate me, you love me, bro,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: just don't touch me.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: Do no weird shitting person And I'm cooling Like That's
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: how I move for.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: It seems like the NBA. It sounds like the NBA
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: is supporting you.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: More from from like a musical standpoint, because.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: I did come from over there, like playing all them dudes,
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: so like they know, they probably know me, know my
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: brothers and ship, so it's like they probably feel like
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: they can relate real like, oh yeah, that's a old
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: nigga doing his rap shit like that, so they probably
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: tap in.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: And I bet you everybody wish they had brothers like you,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: because when I tell you your brothers, they go hard
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: for your music because you see them posting on the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: instant story like everything.
• 7:41

• 7:50
  Speaker 5: like supporting each other all the way through.
